INSTALLATION OF THE BREAKFAST CLUB
Safe and satisfactory operation of the Breakfast Club depends upon its proper installation. The
installation, adjustments and service of the Breakfast Club must be performed only by a
qualified installer and service technician. This is necessary to insure proper operation and also
to prevent accidents.
Location
When determining a suitable location take into account concerns such as exposure to wind,
proximity to traffic paths and keeping any gas supply lines as short as possible. Locate the grill
only in a well ventilated area. For free standing configurations allow 12” from the sides and rear
to combustible construction while in operation.
Warning
This appliance should not be located closer than 12” to any adjacent combustible surface or
under any overhead unprotected combustible construction.
The appliance is design-certified for use outdoors only
and is not intended to be installed in or
on recreational vehicles and/or boats. This appliance must be on a level, stable surface in an
area clear of combustible material. An asphalt surface may not be acceptable for this purpose.
Electrical Specification
The appliance should only be taken apart by a qualified technician, or electrical shock may
occur. It is rated at120V, 60Hz, 450W and 4A.
Location of Breakfast Club
Proper location and use is essential to insure safe and continued trouble-free operation. Any
alterations made to the appliance will void the product’s warranty.
The Breakfast Club must be located outdoors only
. As with any gas appliance, harmful carbon
monoxide is produced during the combustion process that should not be allowed to accumulate
in a confined space. Also, since hot air rises above the Breakfast Club while in operation,
covered locations should be avoided. Do not locate the Breakfast Club where an overhang or
awning may cover it.
Minimum clearances to combustible surfaces must be maintained when operating this
appliance, and are as follows:
Wall Clearance
Sides 12”

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
General Overview
Proper care, maintenance, and cleaning will help ensure a long life of your Breakfast Club.
Periodic cleaning will help avoid accumulations of flammable grease, fats, and other debris.
Some debris and residue may remain on the side burner grates and the griddle plate. To
remove this residue after cooking simply dip a brass-bristle in tap water and scrub the hot grate.
Caution: Always allow the Breakfast Club to cool before cleaning. Do not allow water to make
contact with the burner surface or griddle surface, at any time.
Griddle Plate
Rub the surface of a hot griddle with unsalted solid shortening, vegetable oil or spray it with a
non-stick cooking spray. Thoroughly wipe it with a rough cloth to remove food particles and
other residue. Special griddle cleaners are commercially available which may be used to
remove heavy soil build-up. Follow manufacturer’s directions exactly. Rinse the griddle with
room temperature water after using these cleaners. Dry and coat lightly with cooking oil. Using
hot soapy water to clean the griddle will remove the cooked-in seasoning and will require re-
seasoning by coating lightly with cooking oil.
Caution: Never flood a hot griddle with cold water! This promotes griddle warping and can
cause the griddle plate to crack if continued over a period of time.
Grease Tray
The grease tray collects grease, liquid and food particles. It is highly recommended to clean the
pan after every use to avoid any possibility of a grease fire.
Allow the tray and its contents to cool before cleaning. The grease tray is located in front of the
griddle plate assembly. Slightly tilt the grease tray forward and lift the tray to remove it from the
griddle plate assembly. Wipe the grease tray clean with a cloth and a hot soapy solution. Make
sure the grease tray is fully inserted back into the Breakfast Club again.
11
Top Burner Grates
Wipe up all spill-over as soon as possible after they occur and before they get a chance to burn
in and cook solid. The Burner Grates may also be removed and cleaned with a brass or
stainless steel bristle brush and soapy water. Standard oven cleaner may be used for deeper
cleaning. Rinse the Burner Grate thoroughly with clean water before using.
Spider and Insect Warning
Spiders and other insects can nest in the burners and orifices of this and any other outdoor
products, which causes the gas to flow from the front of the burner. This can create a
dangerous condition that can cause a fire behind the valve panel, damaging the Breakfast Club
and making it unsafe to operate.
Inspect the burners once a year, or if the grill has not been used for more than a month or if any
of the following conditions occur:
1. The smell of gas in conjunction with the burner flames appearing yellow.
2. The grill does not reach temperature.
3. The grill heats unevenly.
4. The burner makes popping noises.
